Upcoming Prodeus DLC 'The Elder Veil' Looks Utterly Ridiculous And Brilliant

@Kulhy exactly. Still waiting for a proper gyro update on the base game, which already looks subpar compared to xbox/ps versions.

I've heard good things about this game, but haven't checked it out.

This sweet looking expansion just sold me on it, though! I am very interested.

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one here with a hard line stance on gyro controls. I was never quite able to bridge the gap between WASD+Mouse and console controllers until Splatoon showed me the way.

I hit a wall when playing Doom 2016 where I couldn't beat the stage I was on. As soon as they updated the game with gyro controls, I was able to effortlessly pass the point I was stuck on. From that point on, gyro options became essential.

The graphics looks gorey and gorgeous and the gameplay really drew me in. Just tell me there's gyro and I'll fork over the cash.

This looks amazing. Wish I'd gotten to it before the base game left GP.

The environments and the angels look somehow familiar, the gameplay could not be any further away from a Bayonetta game. Music and sound as well looking at the trailer.

Just go and play Bayonetta already, you know you want to

I really liked it, progression is wonderfully handled and despite the obvious Unity issues and some long loading times, it was real fun on Switch. It did feel a little like it wasn’t quite a 1.0 game but then it’s a small dev and they’ve clearly been working on this expansion.

@Desrever I kinda take a hard stance the other way. I grew up not playing FPS on PC, but on Console (PS1, PS2, etc) Console FPS was a different thing from PC FPS. Hard of a FPS on console would be a walk in the park on PC because the controls make it so. Aiming with a stick is far harder and difficult to get good at than mouse (and the closest equivalent on console - gyro) I personally have a distaste for the ultra precise (what seems 'easy) method of mouse or motion. Stick is hard. its hard to 'git gud' with stick, but that gives it an element of challenge i missed when ever i did try mouse controls. I personally hate gyro because it feels like setting the game to easy mode. Anyway, just my personal stance on this but i know i am in the minority.

@LadyCharlie yeah it's a really good games there is some performance issues on some stages
but not all stages
but other than that its one of the best fps games on switch 😊

Finished the main campaign co-op with a friend on Gamepass just before it left the other day. Really fun but extremely repetitive by the end. Also not sure what it’s like single-player but co-op is extremely forgiving with checkpoints and respawns etc even on the harder difficulties. This looks cool though.

i regret it to buy it, because there was no info the custom maps staff and not just the multiplayer are locked behind their account system which is locked behind the Nintendo online membership what an ass~@~@ole move, doom allowed to download customer dlc without this , and there was no information about on the e-shop i will never buy something from this developer ever!!! (luckily i hade one week free so i downloaded as many maps i could before expired(and there is a limit even for how many staff you can download , so i got the best ones )

@Kulhy thank you, I was just asking myself if this game has gyro. I won't be getting it until they add gyro aiming to it.

@aresius yeah, i found that massively annoying myself. there should have least been a base of a few maps pre-installed, and not having all access locked behind a nintendo online membership.

Definitely a great game, might check this DLC out once I learn of its price.

@aresius You couldn't afford $20 a year, that's literally $1.70 a month for online membership. Just get an online account and play. Not all company could afford to give out contents for free especially not this small dev.

I will wait for a Nintendo Switch preview/review of the DLC. The trailer on this post is not Switch.
I have the original still sealed as I too am waiting to hear that they patched in gyro controls.
My guess is that gyro is not coming 🤷‍♂️

@Serpenterror
first this content are made from the community and the base single payer content is already very short and they put a lot of effort to publicity the custom map download and they did not give full transparency about it, and Nintendo does no required membership for free staff or in games accounts only multiplayer it was Their fault a mess error.
third I do not pay online games period so for what reason i have to pay for online membership every time I want to access the custom made maps?

@smithyo That's completely valid, especially when your muscle memory has been wired that way from a young age. I also have friends who tend to move around more when playing, or make jerk reactions when the game gets more tense, and loathe having those real world movements reflected in the game they're playing.

Honestly, it's just best to offer the option for both

I finished Prodeus months ago on PS4. It was alright; it got repetitive and boring with its brain-dead enemies. I'm willing to try out the DLC; it looks like a big step up.

Great game, awful switch port.

I really enjoyed it on Switch. Didn't reinvent the wheel or anything but was mindless fun and that's all I could ask for in games like that. For me it got a lot better in the later levels. I really dug the soundtrack and still listen to it randomly because it just hits so hard. It's funny that it's getting 'Bayonetta' vibes with this DLC because I recently traded this game in to go towards my purchase of "Cereza and the Lost Demon". It's looking like I'll need to get this game again to play the DLC...

@Desrever gyro controls are fine but I was really into the Wii during that generation and nothing will ever come close to the Wii's fps pointer controls, not even keyboard and mouse.

Metroid prime 3 and both conduit games are perfect examples

Guess one day, I'll have to crack open the case here.
